Calling all IPv6 experts - help me get Windows 7 to pingv6!

So I setup IPv6 on my dd-wrt with Tunnelbroker. With my iPhone as a wireless client I can ping any IPv6 address on the internet, and I get the swimming turtle at http://www.kame.net/. But with Windows 7 (my wired PC and wireless laptop) it doesn't work at all! What am I doing wrong? I can't ping anything with my Windows 7 PCs, can't ping the iPhone, can't ping the gateway, nothing.

From the iPhone I can't ping my PCs either, but I can ping stuff outside. I can't even ping link-local addresses with Windows 7.

Yes, I have IPv6 enabled, and when I do "ipconfig" in Windows 7 I see my link local and global addresses. I have a ::0/128 route pointing to my router's IPv6 address, just like on my iPhone.

When I run Wireshark on my laptop and I try to ping it only sees neighbor advertisement and solicitations, it doesn't see any icmpv6.
